Mer information

The CMS DESY group is based in Hamburg and is one of the largest groups worldwide participating in the CMS Experiment at CERN. One of the many topics examined in our group is the search for particles being produced by new physics in association with top quarks. In the context of the group of Prof. F. Blekman and Dr. A. Hinzmann, we focus on the search for BSM particle decays into di9cult to select objects making use of the presence of top quark pair production and heavy boson production, focusing on BSM particles decaying to jets or leptons that may or may not be displaced, can be highly Lorentz-boosted and can be produced together with top quarks. Besides physics analysis, the group is also involved in the construction of the Tracker and High-Granularity Calorimeter for the Phase-2 upgrade, luminosity measurements, the alignment of the Tracker and other calibration activities, as well as algorithmic work and shifts for the detector operation.

The DESY CMS group is seeking to hire two postdocs to strengthen the team. The broad physics topics are direct new physics searches in ttbar+BSM particle or diboson signatures, respectively. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to work in one of the most active groups in the CMS collaboration, work on instrumentation, and will have the opportunity to contribute to future collider studies and/or science communication.
